My battery - powered pocket watch quit working after several decades' service. I was hoping to find a wind-up watch of ( at least) similar quality. This watch is even better quality and is very aesthetically wonderful as well !

I've wanted a pocket watch for ages, but all I could afford in the past was a cheap spring that over wound with seven half twists of the stem. Needless to say when I discovered you had pocket watches at a price I could afford (I am, admittedly, in a better financial place than I have been) the question rapidly became "which one to get?" I went with this one for the colour (silver and copper are my personal favorites), the aesthetic of the classic roman numerals, and the fact that you don't have to actually open the watch to check the time (convenient for a quick glance). It arrived very well packaged, is lovely in person, and came with very clear instructions for care, winding, etc.
Needless to say, this one I could wind without it breaking. You do indeed get what you pay for.

What you see is exactly what you get and more. This piece gave the feel of stepping back in time a bit. It looks very elaborate and yet lasting. If you are at all interested in such a time piece, I truly and genuinely recommend this company so all you need to do is find the watch that you or someone you're buying for will like the best.

I purchased this watch as a 50th birthday gift for my brother. I was so happy to find it on this website, as I had no luck locating many pocketwatches at local jewelers, and what I did find did not compare in style to this watch. This watch was exactly what I had in mind, and as stated by another reviewer, it was better in person than on the website! I couldn't have been more pleased with the ordering or delivery, and the watch itself is exquisite, was a big hit as a gift, my brother loved it.

Wedding Gift from Bride to Groom
I bought this as a wedding gift for my soon to be husband. We are getting married soon, so I have not given it to him yet, but I know he will absolutely love it!! I've looked at it and it is beautiful! I can't wait to see the look on his face when he sees it!
Beautiful and works great!
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. He LOVES it! The watch is gorgeous, it looks so much better than in the photos posted here. My boyfriend winds it every morning and it keeps time great. He wears it every day and won't go ANYWHERE without it. It also comes with a lifetime warranty, so I know if anything happens we can get it fixed. I love having that peace of mind. I highly suggest this, if you're thinking about getting it, go for it! It's well worth the money spent! It also makes a great gift for that special someone who needs to keep time and appreciates art and beauty! I give this item a full five stars.

A great watch, elegant, and exquisite frame
I love it. Works like a charm, little sag after each day before rewinding though but nothing much. It's also smaller then I imagined but no big deal.
I carried it with me to work for two days and it worked very well. The pin on the chain worked very well on my sweatpants and I got a lot of nice compliments.
Has to be rewound every day but you just twist the top so that's easy.
If you like pocket-watches then I do recommend it. It's also more stylish then the gold one. More "Classy" less "Bling" over it.

This was far superior to the pic on the site. It has a nice weight, clicks open smoothly, and just feels like a wonderful piece. Thanks!!
